BUCKS CO BK ARRIVALS Part 1
BUCKS CO BK ARRIVALS Pt. 1
SUBJECT: BUCKS CO BK ARRIVALSFROM: SANDRA BUCKMAN (VDRT14A)
To All; I AM GOING TO POST THE " BOOK OF ARRIVALS" in Bucks
as it is just too interesting not to share, as many of the
families we are researching obviously met on voyages, some
married, and settled in Bucks. This is from Battle's (as you
know I love this book).
"The "Book of Arrivals" was a record provided for
the "Frame of the Government", but Phineas Pemberton appears to
have been the only one of the early officers to discharge the
duty thus assigned. As no regulations were adopted to aid the
register in making it complete, the list is not so complete nor
accurate as we probably intended, but with all it imperfections
it has been of great value to historians. The original record,
time worn and barley legible, is still to be seen in the
register's office at Doylestown, but in the natural order of
things will soon fall into utter decay.
It has never before been published, and is here preserved
for the future historian. The register of births and deaths is
copied in full. Of the register of marriages the certificates
are omitted.(P.S. the people listed as servants passage was paid
for the "Arriver", and mention is made of time to be served in
labor to satisfy this debt, but will leave this out for know as
it is lengthily, and not particurily relevant, Sandy)
